More quotes by Barack Obama
As you travel through the Middle East what keeps on striking home to me is how similar everyone is, and yet the degree to which we can find differences to fight wars over. It requires a great deal of empathy, I think, between various sides to overcome this history and live in peace.
Barack Obama
In America, we've set up a system whereby when you take on college debt, you will never have to pay more than 10 percent of your income in repayments. And what that will do is make sure that you will never be prevented from going to school just because of money. We want to make sure that you and others like you can succeed.
Barack Obama

Barack Obama
When you've got little kids, and you're tucking them in. When you open a door and they're in their pajamas and they're, you know, wrestling with you and asking you, you know, to read to them and stuff, [The white House] starts feeling like home pretty quick. Not to mention having a mother-in-law upstairs, and the dog, and now two.
Barack Obama
Everybody acknowledges that the current path we're on is unsustainable, not just for the people who don't have health insurance but for those who do.
Barack Obama
We should never forget that God granted us the power to reason so that we would do His work here on Earth - so that we would use science to cure disease, and heal the sick, and save lives.
Barack Obama
Of course I have got concerns. Donald Trump and I differ on a whole bunch of issues.
Barack Obama
We cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself.
Barack Obama
One of the great strengths of the United States is... we have a very large Christian population - we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.
Barack Obama
This doesn't mean abandoning our values and ideals wherever we can, it's in our interest to help foster democracy through the diplomatic and economic resources at our disposal.
Barack Obama
Life takes its own turns, makes its own demands, writes its own story, and along the way, we start to realize we are not the author.
Barack Obama
There may be no greater tribute to Steve Jobs' success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.
Barack Obama
The politics around trade has always been tough, particularly in the Democratic party, because people have memories of outsourcing and job loss.
Barack Obama
If we're going to prevent people from being susceptible to the false promises of extremism, then the international community has to offer something better and the United States intends to do its part.
Barack Obama
It is my strong belief that Israel has not just the right but the obligation to protect itself.
Barack Obama
So here's what I want you to know, and here's what I want all our men and women in uniform to know: Because of you, we are ending these wars in a way that will make America stronger and the world more secure. Because of you.
Barack Obama
We have an obligation and a responsibility to be investing in our students and our schools. We must make sure that people who have the grades, the desire and the will, but not the money, can still get the best education possible.
Barack Obama
